Lyrics
And all the movie stars
Reference to glamorous individuals in the entertainment industry.
Came in their best clothes
Movie stars attending a special event dressed in their finest attire.
And all the crazy fans came from so far
Enthusiastic fans making a long journey to be in proximity to their idols.
Just to get too close
The fans' desire to be physically close to the celebrities.
And all the rich carpets
Luxurious carpets laid out for the celebrities' arrival.
Rolled out for painted feet
Imagery of celebrities' painted feet stepping onto the plush carpets.
And all the cameras flashed for the big artists
Cameras capturing moments as prominent artists take their seats.
Until they took their seat
The attention and flash of cameras directed at the celebrities.
It was a galaxy of pretty people
A vivid description of a gathering filled with attractive people.
Planets floating in the sky
Metaphorical imagery of beautiful people as celestial bodies in the sky.
A bowl of oranges spilling on the carpet
An image of spilled oranges, possibly symbolizing chaos or unexpected events.
Outside
The chaos happening outside the controlled environment of the event.
And all the big screens
Large screens displaying vivid images, likened to a watermelon seed.
Shined like a watermelon seed
A visual metaphor for the applause generated by the audience.
And all the hands clapped
The collective applause for an illusionary, two-dimensional dream.
For that 2D dream that they keep selling
Critique of the commercialized dreams being sold to the audience.
It was a galaxy of pretty people
Reiteration of the glamorous gathering filled with attractive individuals.
Planets floating in the sky
Continuation of the metaphor comparing people to celestial bodies.
A bowl of oranges spilling on the carpet
Repetition of the spilled oranges, highlighting disorder beyond the event.
Outside
The disorder extending outside the controlled environment into the open.
